Our monthly borrel for the older members of our group. (ie. most bars don't allow those under 21)

This is the newer Belgian restaurant/pub that opened in downtown old Garden Grove. As always, please bring cash to make paying the bill easier.

Huge selection of Belgian beer, pomme fritte and other yummies.

Hope to see many of you there and to raise a glass to celebrate the long Thanksgiving weekend.

We will be decorating Ria and Rick's Christmas tree. They have tons of ornaments - we will be the "labor elves".

Gooday Sacramento Dutchies,

In this slide-accompanied lecture, food historian Peter G. Rose delves into the early history of the life of Saint Nicholas; explains the various changes in his veneration; and relates how he was brought to America by the Dutch in the 17th century, and again, transformed into Santa in the 19th century. The talk encompasses such subjects as literature, religion, the fine arts, and Dutch food ways to describe the extraordinary story of Saint Nicholas' generosity, which has had a lasting impact on American culture.
